Atopy influences exhaled nitric oxide levels in adult asthmatics.
STUDY OBJECTIVE To examine whether atopy influences exhaled nitric oxide (NO) levels in adults with established asthma. SETTING Specialist respiratory unit in a university teaching hospital. PATIENTS Twenty-eight asthmatics (mean FEV(1), 85.7%) receiving short-acting inhaled bronchodilators and a range of inhaled steroids (0 to 4,000 microg/d). INTERVENTIONS Subjects were studied on two o...

متن کاملAssociation of expired nitric oxide with occupational particulate exposure.
Particulate air pollution has been associated with adverse respiratory health effects. This study assessed the utility of expired nitric oxide to detect acute airway responses to metal-containing fine particulates. Using a repeated-measures study design, we investigated the association between the fractional concentration of expired nitric oxide (F(E)NO) and exposure to particulate matter with ...
متن کاملIncreased amount of nitric oxide in exhaled air of asthmatics.
The presence of nitric oxide (NO) in the exhaled air of humans has recently been described. We wanted to assess at what level exhaled NO originates in normal airways, and to determine whether airway inflammation induces changes in the levels of exhaled NO. Exhaled NO was continuously measured by chemiluminescence technique during normal tidal breathing through the nose or mouth, with a detectio...
متن کاملThe hypotensive effect of L-arginine is associated with increased expired nitric oxide in humans.
Endothelial metabolism of L-arginine to L-citrulline and the potent vasodilator, nitric oxide (NO), is important in the regulation of vascular tone and resting BP. L-arginine improves abnormal endothelium-dependent vasodilation in the setting of hypercholesterolemia and has a vasodilatory effect in normal vessels, effects presumed to be mediated through increased endogenous NO production, altho...
